According to what I have long understood, my parents became parents for the first time seventy-four years ago today. Mom and Dad lived at that time in the State of Washington. I have seen a draft, two drafts, we should say, of what they seem to have proposed to report by way of a telegram to my mother’s parents, who lived then all the way on the other side of the country, in New Jersey.
Mom’s draft came first. Dad’s draft, two words longer, improved upon it, in my opinion.
What they finally sent, I do not know.
